Jamie, what is it specifically about this machine you feel is so unusual. If it's the color, well Kenmore's HE4T asher and dryer come in 3 unusual colors.

Yes, I was talking about the color, lol. I guess I meant more, "why can't we have inexpensive washers and dryers like this?" lol!

Yep, you end up having to spend a fortune to get a custom color, and a window in the door! A standard model in the USA will just be a white box, with the control panel on top.

Their are advantages and disadvantages to the euro appliances just like the same for usa stuff. I would like to see more exotic colors however.

a lot of people in england do get their machines custom coloured, ususally to use in child care centres and places. But brands such as Servis and White Knight did at one time bring out brightly coloured appliances. A neighbour of ours had her entire kitchen set (dishwasher, washer/dryer, stove and fridge freezer) a grass green colour, it looked fantastic.

White Knight!!!!

If these were available in the US, they wouldnt stand a chance!!!!! They are awful quality and NOT worth the reserve of 35.00GBP new!
You would be very disappointed in this machine and unless you have a psychedelic Kitchen, the colourwould clash with most kitchens!
